The holder abuts the outer tube, and has an abutting portion and a plurality of rollers, wherein the plurality of rollers roll in the outer tube enabling the holder to slide in the outer tube. The inner tube has a first end and a second end. The first end connects with the connect member, and the second end connects with the holder. The elastic member, disposed in the outer tube, abuts the abutting portion, and supports the holder and the inner tube, allowing the inner tube to remain in any position in the outer tube.
